From Company's Coming: Most Loved Treats cookbook. As any Canadian knows, all Company's Coming cookbooks ROCK. Ingredients:
1/2 cup margarine (not tub margarine!) or 1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed |
1 large egg yolk |
1 cup flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 large egg white, fork beaten |
2/3 cup nuts, finely chopped (your favourite) |
6 tablespoons red jam (your favourite flavour) |
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325 F.
2. Cream margarine and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add egg yolk and beat well.
3. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Add to margarine mixture, stirring until stiff dough forms. Roll dough into balls, using 2 tsp for each.
4. Dip balls into egg white, then roll in nuts. Arrange balls, about 2 inches apart, ona greased cookie sheet. Dent each one with your thumb.
5. Bake for 5 minutes, then remove from oven and press dents again. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until golden. Let stand on cookie sheets for 5 minutes before moving to wire racks.
6. Fill each dent with 1 tsp jam - if storing, store without jam and just fill the dents before serving.
